The check was indeed incorrect.

Doesn't help with gcc 4.1.2 :-(

Before:

drivers/input/touchscreen/zforce_ts.c: In function ‘zforce_read_packet’:
drivers/input/touchscreen/zforce_ts.c:432: warning: comparison is
always false due to limited range of data type

After:

drivers/input/touchscreen/zforce_ts.c: In function ‘zforce_read_packet’:
drivers/input/touchscreen/zforce_ts.c:434: warning: comparison is
always false due to limited range of data type
